New iLike.com Sidebar Release

We just released a new version of the iLike Sidebar for both Windows (released Dec. 17th) and Mac (released Dec. 18th). Thanks to your feedback, we were able to find and fix a few problems that some of our users were experiencing, namely errors while installing.

If you've been having problems with the sidebar, please try downloading and installing this newest version of the Sidebar, which can always be found on our download page. If you're not having any problems with the Sidebar, there's no need to worry about this - we will soon upgrade you to the latest version automatically. 

Please feel free to leave us any feedback in the comments to this blog post; and if you're having a technical problem, please contact iLike support. Your feedback helps us make iLike better for everyone!

From all of us at iLike, Happy Holidays!   :-)

Monumental upgrade to iLike Sidebar - for iTunes, WindowsMedia, and Mac

We can't say enough how excited we are about the latest iLike Sidebar - for iTunes, for WindowsMedia Player, Windows XP or Vista, Mac OS/X Tiger or Leopard - we have released all of these simultaneously:  download it here!

Note: most existing users will be auto-updated to the newest version, but not immediately. If you're reading this blog, upgrade now! :)

What's new: live updates from your favorite artists
As you listen to music in iTunes or Windows Media Player, you see live updates from the artist you're currently listening to - bulletins, concert alerts, album releases, new music, and new videos.

See the screenshot to see what the iLike Sidebar displays while listening to different artists (all of whom are posting content using the iLike Universal Artist Dashboard):

Artists: starting today, every time you upload a song, enter concert information, or post a multimedia iCast bulletin, the iLike "post-once, publish everywhere" system will automatically display this information in the iLike Sidebar for iTunes and Windows Media.
